fashion | Lessons from my daughter

Over the years, Emily has been awarded the title of fashion advisor.

She is a really honest advisor who normally tells me that I look awesome…

That changed this morning

I walked in Emily’s room as per usual and asked her what she thought of my outfit.

I was wearing a skirt and a white top.

She said : “Meh!”

I asked her what she meant by “meh!”.

She pointed at my outfit and said that’s too much white and it doesn’t go with the pretty skirt.

I left the room and came back with a great faux-leather jacket.

Emily was still not sold but it was “Better!”

I added a necklace and got the passing grade!

And there I was under the impression we had a deal where I asked her opinion and she paid me a compliment.

Now I know for a fact that when she tells me I look awesome, she thinks it!

That is my silver lining!

Whenever I have a chance to let the world know about my girl, I seize it.

I wish more opportunities would present themselves but for now, I will embrace what is there as I truly don’t have the time to go out and create opportunities.

Earlier this year or late last year, Emily was asked to be part of a calendar, to raise awareness for Cri du Chat syndrome

You can find Faces of Grace Organization on Facebook

For the month of January, you get some facts on Cri du Chat Syndrome

Cri du Chat (Cat’s cry) syndrome, also known as 5p- (5p minus) syndrome, is a chromosomal condition that results when a piece of chromosome 5 is missing. Infants with this condition often have a high-pitched cry that sounds like that of a cat. The disorder is characterized by intellectual disability and delayed development, small head size (microcephaly), low birth weight, and weak muscle tone (hypotonia) in infancy. Affected individuals also have distinctive facial features, including widely set eyes (hypertelorism), low-set ears, a small jaw, and a rounded face. Some children with cri du chat syndrome are born with a heart defect.

And the model for the month of October is non other than Emily!
I bought many calendars and shipped them to friends and family!

If you are in the US and would like a calendar, I beieve there are still some available for purchase : Here

If you are not from the US (like me) you might need to arrange with the person on the facebook page to get a calendar. 100% of the proceeds go to the 5p-society.
